Chapter 764 Epilogue (1)
It's time to get up.
Li Muhan.
The ethereal voice kept lingering in Li Muhan's ears.
He seemed to have slept for a long time. The voice in his ear was very familiar to him, but he could not remember the name when it came to his lips.
[Mother has extracted your essence from the Heart of the World, but unfortunately, your connection is too deep to be completely severed.]
[Don't worry, your birth was influenced by many factors. You can say that these are a curse.]
[But I think based on your personality, you shouldn't mind these things. As long as you are still Li Muhan, you can't give up all of this.]
But don't worry, Mother will be watching over you until the day you have no connection with this world anymore. Then Mother will come to pick you up personally and take you to our world... Li Muhan, we still have a lot of time. Now, enjoy your life.
It’s time to get up
Li Muhan slowly opened his eyes.
Above my head is the familiar ceiling, and beside me is the beeping sound of medical equipment.
He wanted to sit up, but found a petite figure pressing on him.
"Let her sleep."
A somewhat tired voice came from the bedside.
"During your coma, she cooperated with various research every day, hoping to use her body as a breakthrough to awaken you... Although the results show that your awakening has little to do with her, who knows, perhaps you also heard her call in the dark."
Li Muhan looked back and saw Lan Yun operating the instrument.
He felt that Lan Yun seemed to have aged ten years, and there were many more silver strands in her hair.
"Minister Lan, regarding President Wu's matter..."
"It's been half a year."
Lan Yun said lightly, her fingers mechanically operating the screen, and then turned her head to look at Li Muchan. Her eyes were full of fatigue at this time, but she still tried to smile at Li Muchan.
"We all lost a lot in that catastrophe, but during the six months you were asleep, we also worked hard to get out of that haze."
"Anyway, thank you for your hard work, kid... and welcome home."
Li Muhan gently hugged Xia Yue in his arms and rubbed her hair.
The girl slowly opened her eyes, she was a little confused at first, then her pupils slowly contracted, and finally she hugged Li Muhan tightly.
"You're not leaving this time...?"
"I'm not leaving."
"real......?"
"real."
...
...
The reconstruction of Cuiwei Mountain is nearing completion. Although the battle took place within the realm, the Supernatural Management Department inside Cuiwei Mountain was actually damaged.
With the concerted efforts of all units, this place is now almost brand new, and there is a tombstone standing in the backyard of the small gym on the top of the mountain.
The girl, dressed in a Taoist robe, came to the tombstone and slowly knelt down.
"Master, I finished my sixth grade homework today. I failed math... but I will work hard. Also, I've started studying the Zhengyi Taoist scriptures you left behind with the help of Master Zhongya. They're a little difficult to understand..."
The girl intertwined two fingers together.
"Well, Master Zhongya said that most of the classics you left behind involve the essence of Taoism. He is too far away from me to provide me with much help, so I may have to leave Tianhai City temporarily. Director Wei of Yulang City can guide me."
"Don't worry, I won't fall behind in my studies. When I turn eighteen, I'll definitely study hard to get into university and earn a diploma! No, that's not right! Not just getting a diploma! I'm...getting a diploma."
She looked around and found that there was no one around, so she quietly took out two cans of beer from her robe.
"Master, although this is against the rules, I know you like to drink, so I bought it from the store at the foot of the mountain."
The girl opened the pull ring and poured the beer in front of the grave.
"Master...I missed you so much."
After doing all this, the girl could no longer hide her inner sadness. She sat on the ground, bent her knees, hugged her legs, buried her face in her knees, and sobbed softly.
At this moment, on the top of the mountain, the Qilin, who was riding on colorful clouds but was invisible to people, was watching the girl every day.
A hint of green appeared faintly in the clouds, and a giant green dragon slowly emerged from the clouds.
"You've been lurking in the human world for hundreds of years, changing bodies one after another, yet you only retain compassion for this child. This makes me very curious."
Qilin didn't speak. It seemed to be reminiscing about the day when the world was shrouded in gloom.
The Taoist priest used a summoning talisman in exchange for half of his own life to allow Qilin to appear in the world and temporarily protect Cuiwei Mountain.
When everything was over, it came on auspicious clouds and stopped beside the Taoist priest and the corpse of the Taoist child.
[My fate is over, it's all God's will, we are powerless to change it]
Qilin told the Taoist that even he could not bring the dead back to life.
"I have no intention of defying fate. I simply wish to use my broken body and the remainder of my life to secure a future for this child."
He knelt on the ground, his face calm and composed, as if at this moment he had truly understood what the Tao was.
[What a life in exchange for life.]
Qilin seemed a little angry. Such behavior was against the will of heaven.
How dare you compare your own destiny with the laws of nature!
The Taoist slowly raised his head, a sad and tired smile on his face. "Why not? Lord God, look up and see. Where is the Heavenly Way in this world now? Everything around us is devastated. Where is the Heavenly Way? Open your eyes and see. God, your existence is not that great."
"In that case... why don't you lower your head and look at this poor child... put aside your hypocritical self-esteem... and give her a future..."
After the Taoist said this, he knocked his head to the ground.
Qilin thought that he would be angry and bring down divine punishment on this rude person.
But unfortunately, every word he said made sense and was a gem, and it was irrefutable.
God is indeed not that great.
In the face of this world, in the face of the Tara people who tore the world apart, God is so powerless.
Since I can't protect the people, then let this seedling under my feet...break out of its shell.
"Have you considered this? Your fate is already drawing to a close. Even if you were to forcibly revive your life, it would only last a mere ten years. Are these ten years really what you call the future?"
"yes."
The Taoist raised his head with a firm look in his eyes.
"These ten years are the future I promised her, and when this ten-year deadline comes, it won't be the end of her. In these ten years, she will have enough time to grow and carve out a new future for herself."
[Good...good idea for opening up the future, human. Life for life. Your soul will not be able to enter the Ten Courts of Judgment. Your actions against the will of Heaven will turn you into a wandering spirit without even self-awareness, suffering eternal suffering. Just for these ten years. Have you really thought this through?]
Kirin's memories end here.
It slowly raised its head and looked at the vibrant city below the mountain.
"I don't harbor any sympathy for this boy. I simply see that in this world, you and I are all dust. Since I can't protect the common people, I'll just save those I can right now. That's all."
The Azure Dragon's head slowly disappeared into the clouds, leaving behind only a auspicious cloud with a long tail.
It should be a nice day in Tianhai City today.
